Roamer/Tramper HGV Driver
We are currently recruiting for a Roamer/Tramper HGV Driver to join our team, working from our Operation Centre in Gloucester, GL2 2SF.
Your home location will be Gloucester, but you will be required to travel to other operation centres to assist them with holiday cover and increased workload.
You will complete 3 to 4 overnights per week, for which you will receive an additional overnight allowance payment.
Role Overview
A Copart Roamer/Tramper HGV Driver collects and delivers predominantly accident-damaged vehicles of all shapes, sizes, and conditions on our salvage transporters. Therefore, the role can be physically demanding.

Copart Drivers must comply with legal and company requirements of a professional driver and operate the vehicle and loading equipment in a safe and efficient manner, following all H&S policies and procedures.
